I had a colour done prior to using the product so it was good to see how my colour reacted. Happy to say I still have the gloss! Conditioner is good - I generally need a lot as my hair tangles easily - and this detangled and smoothed out my hair no worries. Only thing I would say is that both the shampoo and conditioner could be a little more fragrant. A slight chemical smell could put you off but the results are pretty good for keeping your colour fresh!

I'll admit it, upfront...I'm a cheapskate. I'll buy the cheapest brand that promises the results I want and expect them to deliver....and they usually don't. I remember an older version of Elvive from when it was a 'salon only' product and I used to use it when I stayed at my mum and dad's place...and used to steal it off my mum :)
I wouldn't usually fork out to buy Elvive so I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it. It smelt amazing and left my hair silky and smooth- and really glossy. I usually use a protein product to add a bit of moisture to my hair but I actually didn't need it after using this product. I colour my hair myself and definately need an extra boost for my ageing hair! I would buy this (maybe on special?!) again for sure!
Tips: Don't give it to you 11 yr old to use...it's too precious!
I find the L'Oreal Paris Elvive brand overall to be the best supermarket shampoo I've used. The Colour-Protect made my hair super shiny and healthy looking! I would say, however, that it didn't tame the frizzies that much so for me it's a toss up between keeping my colour healthy or keeping my hair smooth and slick!! I chose slick hair! I would however recommend that if you are looking for a shampoo and conditioner for colour treated hair it's worth a try!
Hair felt clean but didn't leave it soft. It was quite frizzy afterwards. It certainly wasn't shiny
When I really can't afford to splash out on salon shampoo/conditioner, I am happy to buy L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE. I blonde my hair so need a good conditioner, and I feel this one makes my hair really nice and smooth.
Tips: Don't need a lot of it, product seems quite concentrated.
